Hey,

Has anyone lowered their GEN IV with super low king springs?

If so post a pic up!

Cheers

Would personally stay away from King Springs.

I'd look at a set of Teins or Eibachs. They lower the car around 30mm which is enough to give it a more purposeful stance while keeping it drivable.

As they are a better quality type of spring the ride quality is a lot more composed to. (From my experience)

King don't make super lows for the Liberty Gen IV.

They only make lows, which lower it around 30mm.

IMO I wouldn't say it rides like crap it is OK, put some sways on and you have a very decent setup.

The biggest issue is it doesn't lower the front as much as the rear, search for some PICs of SkoobyGT's car and take a look.

I think they were the Gmax 190's.

I asked the same question years ago.

They look so hot.

Unsure why, but mine is lower at the back also. Most Liberty's I've seen running normal shock & spring set ups have the same characteristics.

Anyone actually know why?
